I stand to gain a whole lot more from those who have been there, done that than if I make all the mistakes myself.
That is one of the reasons I am here. I met our host at CC2008 in St. Paul and was blown away by his car. I thought no way would I ever be doing some of those things, like owning the spindles that are waiting patiently in my back seat to for some other parts to be purchased... or installing brakes with 14" rotors such as the ones on their way here now.
I work too hard for my money to be frivolous with it and if somebody is worth noting and best taken with a stiff dose of
caveat emptor then I really do need to know as much as the next guy.
I do think though that before 9 months passed by I might have driven to their front door for $2k... that is a pretty big pile of patience man, I don't think I have enough of the stuff to ration it that long.
Who's the vendor? Do tell.
Send them a PM with a link to the thread too.
